A talk was given (in English) by some academic expert on HCB. He discussed the Puddle Jumper at some length and put up a slide of "the negative". I was struck by the fact that the negative was only perforated on one side and asked the speaker about it. He said it was a copy negative which I took to mean a copy of the original negative. This discussion suggests to me that might have been a copy of a print. BTW, I was surprised to see that a number of the pre-WWII prints were out of focus. Bill Lawlor
